FAA (Remote Tower Systems)

The U.S. aviation authority and operator, advancing remote tower systems for non-federal airports.

Overview

The Federal Aviation Administration regulates U.S. civil aviation and operates the national airspace system. Its Remote Tower Systems program supports deployment of remote and digital tower technology, particularly as an option for non-towered or FAA Contract Tower airports that cannot justify a conventional tower. The FAA both sets the U.S. framework and, through the NAS, operates services, while coalitions like the DTTC push for faster adoption.
